I have Turbo Tax Premier 2025. When I go to enter my IPPIN Turbo Tax rejects it. The problem is that the entry field only accepts five digits. My IPPIN is six digits. In order to electronically file my federal tax return, I had to turn off IPPIN on the IRS government site. Next i entered a random five digit number to satisfy Turbo Tax,

there are 2 different PINs
the 6 digit IP PIN set by IRS (changes every calendar year for all filing that year regardless of tax year), you enter other Other Tax Situations / Other Return Info.
the 5 digit e-file PIN you enter when you file is whatever you want, it is used by the e-file process and has nothing to do with the IP PIN.
If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file.
Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.
System is working properly.
You are entering the IP PIN into the incorrect location.
